im on the lookout for an e-blade at the mo,dont want to buy it new tho as it would have been cheaper to buy it with one already on.what would be good upgrades without it being e-bladed?
Depends how much u want to put into the cocker m8, as they dont have a lot of reslae value an there are egos going for low £400s now
dont want to put a loads of cash into it cos like you say wont get much back for it,just want it to be better than stock.
if you are planning on keeping it a mech then post in the classifieds a wanted ad for an eclipse blade frame and hollowpoint 3 way.......without a doubt the best mech frame for a cocker and with a hollowpoint you can get your trigger pull down real short. the best version of the blade frame to look out for is the mk3 which has two adjustment screws on the actual trigger, this allows you to fine tune it even more.
there will be loads of people that have them kicking around from when they ebladed their markers so you should find waht you need for very little and see a good return for your cash.
a 2nd hand e1 frame is the other option....shouldnt be crazy money these days....if you can find someone selling the frame on its own.
but before you do anything to it draw a line in the sand....how much are you willing spend...dont go crazy or you will only find you are kicking yourself when you realize you have spent that much on it that you a, arnt going to see a return when you sell and b, could have bought a far better marker for the same cash

thanks for the advice,like i said i dont want to be spending loads of cash anyway just wanted to give it a boost.What type of barrel would be a good one to go for?
now a good barrel or barrel set is a place that spending that little bit more can pay off.......as most of the top end markers these days use cocker threads so you can keep your barrels when you sell the marker.
my advise there would be look for eather a 2 peice dye ultalite or eclipse shaft in the classifieds on here.....many bargins to be had....im sure i saw a standard bore (.688) ultalite on there for 30 quid this afternoon, shafts go for around the same i think......then you can add to that later by buying more back sections in different sizes.
